Interesting Teacher Comments: From BC Trainings, 2014

Interesting and inspiring feedback from trainings: May to August 2014

I understand now that teaching is not just standing in front of the class, but a discussion/dialogue with your children. Instructions have to be clear and detailed.

The BCP will be very helpful especially for slow learners, but also for the fast learners who will develop more language by writing and answering in full sentences.

It made me rethink how I teach and how I can change the language I use.

'I can actually see results from using some of the ideas I got during the training.'

Central Training 2012

My concern about my learners’ language barriers and how to overcome these barriers has been solved for me.

Metro Central Training: Western Cape Education Department (October, 2015)

Thank you very much for the training. We learnt so much from you and how to run the programme... This was interesting and we really enjoyed it.

Kwena Basic Education Trust

I was very happy about my development on this course… often as teachers we do not pay attention to detail, but because of Basic Concepts I was aware of the lack of language use in my class. I am now using a different approach with my learners and being aware of the small details that make a big change in the way I teach and learners learn. Thank you for this eye opening course.

Schools Improvement Initiative, UCT (June 2013)

I feel very strongly that Basic Concepts should be introduced to all learners- this will give me the time to develop their conceptual language and increase their vocabulary and verbal fluency.
